Residual Stresses in Steel and Zirconium Weldments
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1997)Three-dimensional scans of residual stress within intact weldments provide insight into the consequences of various welding techniques and stress-relieving procedures. The neutron diffraction method ... -
Interaction Effects in Combined Arrays of Radial and Longitudinal Semi-Elliptical Surface Cracks in Pressurized Thick-Walled Cylinder
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1997)In two previous papers, the interaction effects for two separate cases of large arrays of semi-elliptical, internal, surface cracks in a thick-walled, cylindrical pressure vessel were studied. ... -
Vibration and Stability of Two Tubes in Cross-Flow
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1997)Two tubes in tandem and normal to flow were studied on the basis of the unsteady-flow theory. Motion-dependent fluid forces were measured in a water channel, and the pitch-to-diameter ratio ... -
